A bit high in the mileage, but is a one owner, was a great price, was fully optioned and drives as tight as a drum!! Definitely the best of any that I drove and that included a couple with quite low mileage. The original owner is a freak in the way he has looked after it. Happy days for me I guess.....Anyway, the bloke I bought it from has told me that it has not been tuned, flashed or chipped etc, but he knew that I was looking for one that I could extend the NCW on, so he would say that.Now, is there anyway for me to tell if the car has been flashed, tuned or chipped etc? I want to extend the NCW, but can't see the point if it has been played with therefore the driveline won't be warrant-able anyway?I should say that I can't notice any difference between my car and any of the countless others that I drove, but who knows really??Any help guys??Phil Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/66887-is-my-car-tuned/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

What made you think it wasn't std???Mate your really asking how long is a piece of string....BTW some photos of the car would be nice...Enjoy the forum...you will find many helpful people here....I just happen not to be one of those...

And I wouldn't be so sure of the flashing either as ford can tell how many times the ECU has been flashed with the BF's. I would ask your dealer if they say it's fine then extend.

They will check the and if they agree to cover it then that's the bonus.
